Hello,

I represent a Software Services company headquartered in India with a significant number of projects in UK & the EU. We currently send our employees on visits to UK on an India specific salary model. The way this works is simple. There is an India specific allowance that is payable to an employee for each day’s stay in India.Once an employee moves out of India, this particular allowance is discontinued & replaced by a country specific per-diem allowance, dependent on an employee’s grade within the structure, paid for each day’s stay overseas. We are currently in the process of trying to enhance the per-diem rates applicable in light of the recent increases in the cost of living in the UK.

Could I get any inputs on the current costs of living in UK & how other companies are enhancing their per-diem rates? Please feel free to mail for further details.
